You don't need inline assembly for that, use __dpmi_int instead.  The
DJGPP FAQ shows how to do that in section 18.2 and other sections of
chapter 18.

Issuing an INT instruction in assembly is not a good idea with DJGPP,
since your program runs in protected mode, so the INT instruction is
handled by protected-mode handler first.  Who knows what that will do?
